My first entire awards gig
ALL THAT SHAGGY HAIR! I am really impressed that they’ve kept the scissors away. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I mostly can’t get over this:
Tumblr media
U.S. awards shows are so over the top unpredictable and Korean music award shows are so...? polite? Predictable? On time? 
Okay...granted, the FACT awards are for Kpop groups, individual ballad singers and global superstars BTS. And PSY. 
I know there are many genres of music enjoyed by South Koreans but the Kpop segment of it is so different from whatever the hell we got goin’ on over here in popular music where the goal is to be more outrageous than the last one who walked across the red carpet, not only in dress but also behavior.
Not knocking anyone, just pointing out how DIFFERENT the cultures are. 
BTS actually behave LESS like all those Kpop artists and MORE like the artists do over here. I guess because they have a lot of western award show experience? They really are much more authentic... as they say, such unbothered kings. Because this ain’t their first rodeo and they keep reminding us it is not the last. And though they gushed with appreciation to Army, we know these awards are not why they do what they do. These awards are our thank you to them.
Also, now having sat through all these performances... the music from all these Kpop groups is NOTHING like Balming Tiger and Crush. And of course the collabs with western artists, Charlie Puth and Benny Blanco. Except PSY, he’s different. 
Which just highlights again that BTS is beyond Kpop. How do you win the Grand Prize at a Kpop award show and not really be Kpop? I am looking forward to the BTS refresh, whenever that may be in the future because it will be earth shattering. I know, Kookie, you aren’t done yet. 
Every time they perform Yet to Come and For Youth, my heart breaks a tiny bit. The songs are perfect and the way they perform them allows them to make a lot of contact with the audience for much of the performance. And I know each time they look out at the audience they are savoring that feeling and storing another precious memory. Congratulations again!
Tumblr media
It occurred to me, Jiminie is trying his damnedest to break his habit of running his hands through his hair so much... much to my dismay. Because all these tiny primps he does with his fingers... I saw you, Jimin, there at the end when you couldn’t stand it anymore! 
Tumblr media
EDIT: Okay, clearly my brain is functioning on not enough sleep because this is NOT the first entire awards gig I’ve watched. I did this same award show last year, except it was so different because there was no audience. I remember how shocked we were about Jungkook’s new lip piercing... ANYWAY! I am going to sleep now because I’m running on fumes. Good night!

What if Y/N was like bugs bunny.
Oh boy We're going to drive them nuts😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(Lmk Wukong) He can only admire you for standing on your own. He remember getting on your bad side once and god that was pure hell. He was pretty arrogant back in the day. When you guys met first you were all like what's up peaches. And then he was like i'm going on a journey With my master. And you said oh can I come. And he was like and why should you? We don't need somebody like you on the journey. You normally try to avoid confrontation but then you said to yourself. I hope you know That this means war. And Boy, did he suffer a montage of confusion and humiliation? That's when he learned not to effort you like that. But over the years you 2 learn to put aside. Your differences and soon became friends and later on. You started a relationship and later even that later on you all got married. All he wishes was that no one would ever Know the truth of your first meeting but I think is too late for that.
Tumblr media
(MK Reborn) You make him wanna pull his fur right out of his skin. You drive him insane. When you're not taunting him tricking him into doing what you want. You're sometimes flirt with him and he is him because You have a crush on him. His face would be red with pure fury and he is sick Of your tricks and disguises. But one One day somebody provoked you and You said I hope you know that this means war. And because of that you haven't been paying attention to him whatsoever. No no he hated that The only one who can mess with you Is him. So after laying waste To the demon that messed with you. We grabbed you by your arms and snarled at your face. Saying that you belong to him and that he is the only one You can mess with all you want and That you are his. You were cool with that you this was your plan all along anyway.
Tumblr media
(NR Wukong) This guy was zany and that's what you like. All your tricks on him and disguis is and humiliation tactics. We're all steps performing a bond with him. He's another You caused to go mildly insane. But I think that guy is crazy already so you guys match. He loves to flirt with you on the daily. Whenever you guys meet and you have an old problem flirting with him back. He just wishes that you don't cause him to get shot a lot. Considering you always go with the whole rabbit season monkey season bit. Overall you guys are a lovely pair of crackheads.
Tumblr media
(HIB Wukong) You drive him crazy as well. He tried everything to get rid of you. But you just keep coming back like a boomerang. He's pretty sure you're more Clingy then Liuer. You cause them so much stress with your antics. And you're hey what's up peaches and finally your unusual affection you have towards him. You literally popped out of Liuer's Basket just To lend a kiss on him. He's still wondering how the hell you did that to this day. But overall you soon grew on the grumpy monkey and he actually starts to expect to see you at least once today. It's not like his life was normal in the first place, but this is getting ridiculous.
Tumblr media
(Netflix Wukong) Man he is easy to mess with. Especially with how condescending he was to you when your first met. You didn't want to go out on a full war. But you still needed to give him a bit of a reality check. So after a few disguises, some tricks and finally. Make shift bomb you made from him. He was finally forced to admit defeat to you and that's how He became your daffy. Of popping by just to see what he's doing And maybe mess with him a little And tease him. But despite all that you two were really close And you actually hate how other people treat him when he's just trying to fit in and stuff. And you can see why he's so obsessed with being a hero to his village and whatever. You often give your own kind of revenge for those that mess with your daffy monkey boy. So when When he gets released from his mountain imagine the first person he sees is you. What's up peaches???

ATSV CHARACTERS AT THE BEACH!!?!?!?!?!?!?!,
i just came (haha funny word) home from the beach and im hella exhausted but :3 it's been a while since i last posted smth "real" on here so there i go 🕺🏻
(apologies to @ukranianacearo im working on your request i promise my computer keeps dying and the heat make it hell to finish BUT we 🆙️ 🫡)
SO content :3 // headcanons only, miguel, hobie, both miles and peter b parker are included :D and indeed gender neutral reader,, enjoy 🕺🏻🫶🏼
also idk if that makes sense but reader is in a separate relationship with all the characters and slightly ooc everyone 🫡
Tumblr media Tumblr media
☆ hobie is the one who proposed going to the beach and you'd be the only one who hyped him up. the hardest spidersociety's member to convince obviously being miguel, you ran to lyla to do so. (since he has a soft spot for her he said yes, not for fun but to watch on you and the others. (but he actually ends up having fun)
"come on, it'll be fun!plus, it would be a shame to not come since it's like 35 degrees outside, and it'd give you a well-deserved vacation"
+ he's the kind to throw you in the freezing water because he'd find it funny how you're mad at him afterwards (but you never stay mad at him for a long time because look at that man. he is a slut. (in a pretty way) + he's also the kind of boyfriend to carry you on his shoulders to like. idk what's that's called but like he'd have on his shoulders and fight another person on another's shoulders. (you would lose bc you didn't stop moving)
☆ miguel would be the grumpy kind for sure. he came there because he knew that'd make him happy and you know he can't help it when it comes to his sunshine <3 (guess lyla isn't his only soft spot X)) he would definitely hold you like a princess in the water and teach you how to swim if you don't know how to,, he'd even find it cute
(in a soft tone) "why do you want to go to the beach? to learn how to swim? OK i'll gladly teach you :D"
and then he'd just turn into the softest teacher ever bc it'd remind him of teaching his daughter. eventually you didn't succeed at learning how to swim, but at least you spent a very wholesome moment together :D
☆peter would be the crackhead dad XD i js feel like you'd be the one watching him and mayday and even help him teach mayday to swim :3 + he'd be like super hyper because going to the beach isn't something he does often bc of his spiderman job and stuff so :3
"what did you say?? you want to go to the beach with me and mayday?? YES PLEASE. ITS BEEN YEARS SINCE I HAD ANY FORM OF ENTERTAINMENT."
☆ 1610 miles would be so hype bc he never went to the beach before, so going with his partner for the first time? he sure is happy :D
"wait?!?!?! is this a kind of date? this is so cool!!!"
but then the heat would just make you too tired to actually swim so you'd just chill, like cuddles and stuff
☆earth 42 miles wouldn't be hyped at first because he's more of an indoors person, like to him going outside when it's already hot us unuseful
"don't you want to stay inside? not gonna lie, im a bit lazy to go out right now."
but he accepts, and he had more fun than he would ever admit
Tumblr media
the two last ones seem hurried im sorry 😭😭😭
but :> hope you enjoyed!
please reblog it helps a lot with reach, please, and thank you!

Tw: polyamory, horror movie references?, reader is a bit of a crackhead,
A/N: reader would look like the guy on the board explaining to the other guy about whatever he has been analyzing. I hope you like this one. Also remember to stay hydrated and get enough rest♡
Masterlist
Tumblr media
It was no secret that you loved horror movies, at a young age you loved to watch horror. Not only that, but you'd analyze what the characters do right and wrong, since then you began to calculate how you would of done it differently or add to what they'd do. Since then on you'd have some kind of a plan B.
Years had passed, you were a scientist that had been living in Pandora with both your lovers and children. You had an avatar but you only used it if you needed to. You had learned and adapted to the na'vi, but you were still sticking to your human ways. From a young age you had told your kids about what a plan B was and how to make one in case of anything. You wanted them to be prepared for anything just like you were.
When they got older, was when you introduced them to Horror movies. You'd explain to them what to do and what not to do when it came to a situation like that. Both Jake and Neytiri found it odd that you were teaching the kids on topics like this, involving fictional things. In your defense you'd tell them that some movies were based on true events on earth.
You had learned about a war party going out to destroy a train that had been around. In a few days, you had been listening to Jake's plan and you took notes on it as well as beginning to make your own plan B. After he talk he had with the war party, you had began to explain to him along with Neytiri, Neteyam and Lo'ak about your plan B. "Just in case of anything that happens out there, you got a plan!" you explained to them, but Jake had some questions. "How do we know that your plan will work?" he asked. "If it doesn't, then we move to plan C, if that one wasn't work, move to plan D, if not that then plan E" you explain. You had the whole English alphabet in a plan.
"Ma y/n is that really necessary?" Neytiri asked. "Of course babe! You've always got to be prepared, better safe than sorry." You said. "I think Ma is right, having a plan B is good" Lo'ak pointed out. "Yeah, we all know you'll screw up the first plan bro" Neteyam ruffled his little brother's head, making Lo'ak hiss at him in response. "I know it sounds odd and unrealistic, but I get worried when you're all out there risking your lives, I get it, it's for the safety of the people, but who is worried about all of yours safety?" you asked them.
They looked at each other at first, you were right. They risked themselves and other na'vi out there for the safety of the Omaticaya. "You're right y/n, we'll use all the alphabet of your plan." Jake said, basically making you grow excited by his response. "Trust me they'll work!" you explained still hyped that they considered on using your second plans. "You know what, we should watch a horror movie, how does Carrie sound?" you asked, both Neteyam and Lo'ak seemed to agree, but Jake and Neytiri looked concerned. "But Tuk is still to young for horror movies." Neytiri commented. "Oh it's fine, Carrie isn't so bad, but if anything I'll stay up all night taking care of Tuk." You mentioned.
"We should watch Child's Play instead." Lo'ak commented. "Nah bro, not that one, let's watch the Shinning instead." Neteyam commented. They began to go back and forth on what movie they should watch instead. You just chuckled along with Jake and Neytiri, seen how they began to bicker on what movie to watch.

It Takes a Mob pt.6
Previous
First
“I still don’t get why Bill gets the kid. He didn’t even want him if the first place!”
Bill sighed he absentmindedly put a hand across the giggling mound on his front.
“Yeah yeah, you forget you’re a crackhead without an’ addiction. Can’t hide shit on you.”
Locking the door behind them, Bill checked that Danny could still breathe under the jacket Marv shoved over them.
Bill, quite frankly, felt like a child messing around in his father’s closet again.
The jacket was big on Marv, so Bill looked was drowning in the thing.
“You act like you aren’t happy that I’m the one doing the heavy lifting.”
Marv let out a guffaw from behind him,
“Heavy lifting? Bill, he’s a baby, weighs less than a handful of grapes.”
“Yeah, well how about we switch, and you say that after afterwards? I have a newfound respect for women.”
Danny poked his head out and seemed very entertained by the commute.
Happily babbling away an swiveling to and fro'.
‘Good instincts,’
Bill mused,
‘Keep them up kid. Watchful eyes, saves your guys and all that.’
The three thugs were walking together in a rough diagonal line with Bill in the center. It was casual enough not to draw attention but if needed they could have the kid covered. Maybe they were being a bit paranoid, but that pays in crime ally. The rest of the walk for what it was worth, was thankfully quiet.
Well, as quiet as Gotham could be. A couple of meagering drunks and some of the nosy ladies of the night withstanding.
A couple light jokes with the ladies and a look from the others got to the guys and they got were they needed to be without any fanfare.
No, problems only arose when they got to work.
It started at the door.
Danny was gently tucked away as they walked to the door.
“Hey fellas, I know we have no official dress code ‘round here but you’re pushing it with that dress.”
“Stan, if I wanted your opinion on my clothes I’d’ve asked ahead of time. Just check us in.”
Stan leaned against the door before dramatically lifting his clipboard.
“Alright, your names?”
“What?”
“What? Need a name to sign you in. Would hate to have all those hours to go unaccounted for.”
Oh, Bill hates Stan, pompous because got a job through daddy dearest. He would blame his upbringing, but Bill knew the Brat’s father. Gabe did his best with that one, just unfortunate that his kid took after his Ex-wife more often than not.
Any normal given night, this would be the moment that someone would have to descale the situation. Bill felt the urge to grab his knife in the back of his mind.
But this was no ordinary night. He was carrying something a lot squishier and more precious than his bruised ego at the moment.
“Bill.”
Was spat through gritted teeth. Stan clicked his tongue and shook his head.
“Don’t see a Bill here.”
“Man, just let Bill in, you know him! He’s been working here for two years!”
“Well, I’m just doing my job Marv, you don’t have to be so feisty.”
Bill released out a deep breath be for uttering,
“William. Overbeck. Junior.”
“Ahh! Yup! There you are Junior! Making’ your old man proud, right?”
“Listen here you tweaky little fuck- “
“Stanley? you better not be messing with Bill out there! If you need to learn a thing or two from a senior than I can gladly-“
“No madam! Right this way.”
Bill always had a soft spot for Ken’s Me-mah. He made sure to step aside as Ken ran too her voice.
“Me-maw!!”
“Hi sugar, you’ve been keeping’ out of trouble now?”
Ken was grinning like a mad man as held the elderly lady.
“Only the stuff I’m not given permission to do!”
“That’s my boy.”
“What are you doing in our neck of the woods this evening?”
Marv asked as she walked over to the others.
“Oh, you know how it is in the kitchen, all the hard things to carry I just thought I was best I didn’t bother trying. We got enough flour and rice to feed all of crime alley that needs to be unloaded. Bill, Marv, do you mind helping a weak old woman?”
“Hardly weak, Me-mah. Everybody knows you have just as much sway as a general around here.”
“And don’t you forget it sonny! Now you two, come! We got work to do for tomorrow and the night is young.”
Bill shifted awkwardly on his feet,
“Well, you see- “
“Don’t you start with me William! I still know your daddy’s number! Now get!”
~~~~~~~~
Bill and Marv stepped into the old kitchen single file. The smell of spices and heat of the oven filled the air.
Bringing out a large cutting board Me-mah gestured to Bill with a knife.
“So, before we begin, do you boys want to tell me what you dragged into my kitchen?”
‘Shit,’
The men shared a glance, and Bill raised a hand to try to come up with something plausible.
“Don’t you think about lying or running, we all know I’ll eventually find out. The only question is am I finding out by you or by word of mouth. Now off with the coat Bill, unless you’re finally eating right.”
Bill put down his finger.
Danny let out a sneeze.
Letting out a sigh Bill reached for the zipper on his front and gingerly pulled it down before handing it to Marv.
“Oh.”
Me-mah gasped,
“That’s not a puppy.”

Hello hello! If it’s all right with you, I would like to vent for a moment: Back in the day, I used to be really into BBC Sherlock. I know it was bad, but it was “Be Gay (solve) Crimes” and I couldn’t resit. One of my favorite parts of the fandom was reading fan metas. I enjoyed reading your ridiculously long meta! I am not very clever and I enjoy reading people noticing things that I can’t. It’s fun watching people passionately pick up clues and put them together.
I don’t think I’m the only one getting superwholock flashbacks lately. Sherlock also tried an unreliable narrator in S4 and it was an absolute shit show. People thought thought the finale was fake, it was so bad. TBH, the entire show was a dumpster fire that thought it was more clever than it was. Moffat was a good writer for single episodes for DW, but a garbage show runner. And they called us crazy for picking up what they were putting down.
But Good Omens gives me a spark of hope. It is unashamedly queer, fun, drinks its respecting women juice, and, unlike moffatiss, I think Neil and the crew may actually be clever enough to pull something big off. I adore the Discworld series and Sir Terry, and I have faith Neil will to do right by him.
Good Omens is restoring my faith in nerdy queer fiction and reminding me why I love fandom so much. Please keep up the crackhead theories. I love them 💕
Thank you, that's very kind!
(Ended up writing a very long reply about the response to my essay and also about queerness in media. Idk why i am writing such long posts these days SORRY LOL. Anyway I'm putting it all beneath the cut so I can tag it without clogging people's dash or the tag pages)
It does make me sigh a little when I see people scornfully comparing my long essay to The Johnlock Conspiracy or saying that they're having Sherlock flashbacks, because the both the contexts of the shows and the methodology of the theorizing are VERY different. To my mind, a more direct comparison of methodology would be the Gravity Falls fandom's "Stan Has A Secret Twin" theory. Writers and showrunners DO like being sneaky and clever from time to time, and many of them are much better at it than Moffat is.
But whether or not my theory is right or not is... kind of irrelevant to me? I wasn't out to force anyone to agree with me, AND writing it was a really fun way to spend a weekend, AND I'm proud of the work I did and the story I told, AND it felt good to have a satisfying workout at the Brain Gym. So even if I'm proven utterly and completely wrong, I won't feel like I wasted my time. :)
Good Omens is a great show, and I am SO HAPPY to see it (and other shows!) embracing queerness, sharing the fans' enthusiasm for the story, and honoring and respecting the fans' love rather than punishing them for it. As more and more time goes on, I think we're going to see more and more shows like that, because some of the people who grew up reading tumblr discourse are going to be showrunners themselves one day, and they'll have learned serious lessons about what it feels like when the audience is met with love rather than disgust and disdain. In fact, we're ALREADY seeing more shows like that than we had 10 years ago! There is so much canonical queerness on-screen these days that the me of 10-15 years ago is ASTONISHED and feels wealthy beyond counting. Of course, there is so much further to go, but man... when i was a kid, we had to walk uphill in the snow both ways just to see two dudes making sustained emotional eye contact, and we were grateful for it. (Jokes but also.... kind of real tho)
We've seen the exact same thing happen in scifi/fantasy publishing in the last seven or eight years, too! (Went off on a long tangent about Queerness In Media from an insider perspective, continuing below a cut so I don't clutter everyone's dash)
Even as recently as 2013--ten years ago--you might not have even been able to get your book published if it was openly gay. Hell, you might not have been able to get an agent to represent it, even. It would have been labeled "unmarketable" and passed over; if it DID get published, the queerness would have been camouflaged and downplayed and hidden in the marketing as much as possible--you wouldn't have known by looking at the cover that it was queer, you wouldn't have been able to tell by reading the back cover that it was queer. In literally 2016, seven years ago, a few months before I got my first book deal, I remember having a conversation with a friend and being very very worried that if I wrote books as queer as I wanted them to be, I would be "pigeonholed" as "ONLY writing Gay Books", that I would be passed over for any of the publisher's marketing budget and publicity efforts, that I would be sidelined and ignored... In 2016, I thought I was facing a choice of writing stories with more "mainstream appeal" OR writing the books I wanted to write and potentially undermining the rest of my career.
That didn't happen, thankfully, because in the next couple years there was this incredible explosion of queer scifi/fantasy. You see, ten to fifteen years ago, a truly stunning percentage of my colleagues -- writers, editors, publicists -- were writing and reading fanfic, and they carried their tastes and story-hungers with them as they grew up and got Real Adult Jobs at publishing companies. And suddenly, as if out of nowhere, a lot of us came of age all at once and there was this absolutely enormous wave of queer SFF that in my opinion has brought us into a new golden age of the genre: The Locked Tomb series by Tamsyn Muir, The Chorus of Dragons series by Jenn Lyons, She Who Became the Sun by Shelley Parker Chan, Ancillary Justice by Ann Leckie, The Tensorate series by Neon Yang, Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon, Light from Uncommon Stars by Ryka Aoki, The City in the Middle of the Night by Charlie Jane Anders, the Birdverse books by RB Lemberg, The Traitor Baru Cormorant by Seth Dickenson, The Jasmine Throne by Tasha Suri, Reforged by Seth Haddon, The Sorcerer of the Wildeeps by Kai Ashante Wilson, Ocean's Echo by Everina Maxwell, The Fifth Season by NK Jemisin -- and these only the ones I could remember off the top of my head in 30 seconds, and I have a flavor of ADHD that makes my brain go blank when people ask me to think of specific examples of things! It is harder for me to think of a SFF book published in the last 7 years that ISN'T queer.
And then almost exactly a year ago, my book A Taste of Gold and Iron came out with THIS COVER:
Tumblr media
Which. Is not so much a step forward in openly queer SFF as it is a fucking gauntlet thrown down in challenge. I cannot impress upon you strongly enough how much I would not have gotten this cover 10 years ago, and that's if the book was even accepted for publication in the first place. This cover SCREAMS gay fantasy romance. There is no attempt to hide it or camouflage it. It is advertising exactly what it is, right up front.
I got the absolute privilege and honor of having this cover--and I do consider it an incredible honor--because of the work that all my colleagues put in with their own work. Each queer book that got published wedged the door a little wider for the next one, and then a little wider still for the next one, until finally someone could get their foot in the door and squeeze across the threshold, which opened it a little wider again. So when I look at this image, I don't just see a beautiful cover that I am delighted to have on my books--I see an entire history of slow, steady progress by so many incredible writers who risked damaging their careers just to drag us to a point where a book as gay as this one could get a cover as gay as that one and STILL get the full and enthusiastic support of both the publisher and the audience. And the most incredible honor and the most humbling privilege out of all of this is the fact that the success of this book meant that the door was wedged open another little bit, that I got to contribute in this small way to the efforts of everyone who came before me, so that ones who come after us will find the door flung wide -- or that there's no door left at all to block the way, because we've collectively torn it down.
So yes, @eyona, I think that having your faith restored little by little is a very good thing, and I am delighted that Good Omens is doing that for all of us. And what's even better is that even if Good Omens doesn't play out exactly how we want it to, that's... kind of okay? Because there is always the next one, and at the very very least, Good Omens is wedging the door open further so that the next one can have an easier time of it. We don't have to walk uphill in the snow both ways just to get a moment of emotionally charged eye contact anymore. We don't have to starve anymore, not like we used to back in the bad old days. And that alone is a wonderful thing. :D

Hey hey hello can I ask.
What is your specific theories when it comes to "Hong Lu is Lin Daiyu," "Hong Lu, Don Quixote, & Outis are using fake names," and "Our Yi Sang isn't the same Yi Sang?" I saw those on the bingo sheet and I'm super curious as to what they mean.
Ok so. I'm gonna go in order from the ones I'm most confident in to the ones that I think are the most crackhead. Ok? Ok.
Under a Read More cause I get wordy. Like, Really fucking wordy and rambly.
Our Yi Sang isn't the same Yi Sang.
So, here's what we know.
According to Leviathan, Yi Sang is the main researcher behind the technology that allows access to Mirror Worlds. Faust also remarks that he used to be more talkative before he joined Limbus Company.
According to promotional material, as well as just everything he says, Mirrors and Mirror Worlds are an important theme for his character. While I haven't touched Crow's Eye View or any of the real Yi Sang's works yet, I have seen notable quotes from it that seem to hold up those themes as well.
With the recently released info on Canto IV not only being about Yi Sang, but also being longer than the three previous Cantos combined, something tells me we're going to be properly delving into Mirror Worlds and how they tie back to both Yi Sang's backstory and the main plot as a whole.
Okay, so that's all nice and all, but that doesn't answer what the fuck I mean with the Bingo space, right? I'm getting there.
Let's go back to when we first learn about Mirror Worlds in regards to the main plot, the Tutorial. Faust explains that using Mirror World identities can cause one's memories to be replaced with those of their other identities, but explicitly says that there's no danger of one's true identity being actually affected. The Sinners aren't Ships of Theseus, according to her.
Now, you could say that that's just a way to explain away how the cutscenes are unchanged despite using different identities in combat, and to that I say, Have you played any other Project Moon game? The moment they decide to give lore to why game mechanics work the way they do is the moment that lore becomes a significant part of the plot. It happened every time they had to explain why the characters you're controlling go back to life, I doubt they wouldn't do that again for something as major as the effect of Mirror Worlds on a person's identity.
With all of that said. My theory is that Yi Sang is this Ship of Theseus. He was likely the first one to properly access Mirror Worlds, which also likely means the procedures that are now in place to ensure the Sinners' safety weren't there just yet. Who is to say that Yi Sang, who is now a Sinner working for Limbus Company, and Yi Sang, the researcher who worked with Mirror Worlds, could even be considered the same person?
I don't think the exact specifics of what happened matter for this theory. Whether it's an identity swap or identity fusion or some other shit. What matters is that something happened while Yi Sang was researching Mirror Worlds, which left him with his very self and identity changed, possibly irreparably.
After all, don't you think it's interesting that Yi Sang is the only Sinner whose talksprite doesn't have his ID Card or a nameplate anywhere on his uniform? Just food for thought.
...Holy shit that got long, I promise I won't have THAT much to say on the other two you asked about SDFGHJHGF
Hong Lu, Don Quixote, and Outis are using fake names
So this is less so a concrete theory, and more just an observation I made.
All the other Sinners are directly named after their inspirations' real names. The exceptions are Yi Sang, who is named after the author; Hong Lu, who is named after the book itself/the jade the novel's protagonist used to be; Don Quixote, who is named after an alias her inspiration used; and Outis, who is named after a false nickname her inspiration used.
We're going to focus on the latter three. The fact that they're not directly named after the characters they're meant to be inspired by while still alluding to them in different ways is suspicious, especially if you consider the kinds of people they're all shown to be.
Outis is probably the most obvious example here, she's constantly acting shady, boot-licking Dante while disrespecting her fellow Sinners, and generally being quiet about the details of her past outside of making remarks about being part of a military. Even her intro states that her past is classified and that she's extremely cunning.
Don Quixote doesn't seem to be malicious in her deceit like Outis is, but something is still up with her. Her intro compares her to an actor, and her particulars say she has "Delusions of Grandeur". Not only that, but we also see her completely drop her usual personality when called out on not being genuine by the Mariachis, as well as when Vergilius threatens her with a Deal they apparently Made.
Hong Lu is... interesting. I could make a whole seperate analysis about him, but to try to keep it shorter for once, I'll note that his suspicious behavior is much more subtle. While most of the time he acts clueless and overly honest (which, let's be real, he probably genuinely is most of the time), there are also a notable amount of situations where he lies, deflects, or otherwise dodges subjects or questions when they inconvenience him. Something is definitely up with him, he's just better at hiding it.
This all culminates in a shared design feature of these three on their talksprites, that none of the other Sinners seem to have. Instead of having their ID Cards attached to their uniform, like everyone else does, they have small metal nameplates on the lapels of their jackets.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is notable as it's something shared Only between these three characters. The other Sinners all have an ID Card attached to a visible spot on their uniform, while Yi Sang, a character who fits neither of the naming schemes since he's named after an author, has neither an ID Card or a nameplate.
Again, not necessarily a concrete theory. Just some observations that could lead to a revelation later on in the plot.
Hong Lu is Lin Daiyu
Ok this one is probably the least supported out of any of these, and the one I believe in the least.
It's like, generally accepted that Hong Lu is supposed to be based on Jia Baoyu from Dream of the Red Chamber, right? Here's the thing, I think that is still the case, but, however.
There are a few things about Hong Lu that point less in his inspiration being Baoyu, and more of it being Lin Daiyu, Baoyu's fated love interest. Not all of it, mind you, but at least some.
One, Hong Lu's eyes. Daiyu's name means blue-black jade, which Hong Lu's eyes seem to subtly, but probably deliverately referencing.
Two, Hong Lu's personality. While none of the Sinners are exactly the same as their inspirations, you can still point where some of their traits come from.
Using Rodya as an example (as Crime and Punishment is the only of the relevant books I had Fully read), her overwhelming self-confidence is very likely a reference to how book Rodion believed himself to be above man. While there are some differences (Rodya's motives are a bit more selfless compared to Rodion's, for example), the base idea of their characters is the same.
Why is this important? Well, while I haven't finished reading Dream of the Red Chamber yet, I am slowly making my way through it. And while there are some ways in which Hong Lu resembles Baoyu, there are also quite a few that things that set them apart to the point it's hard to believe Hong Lu is based only on him.
Here's the thing about Baoyu: he's a trouble maker. He throws tantrums, is highly emotional, and gets borderline treated as a sort of black sheep of his family, especially by his Father (which I will come back to).
Compare that to Hong Lu, who seems to avoid causing trouble (most of the arguments he causes seem to be completely on accident), is stoically smiling all the time to the point it can be almost unnerving, and some of his dialogue seems to imply that his family was at least decently fond of him, if not more (his comment about being "a gem of a child" in his Liu uptie story comes to mind).
Then compare that to Daiyu, who seems to be unanimously loved by her current household, tends to keep her emotions to herself, and tries to stay out of trouble while still making remarks here and there when she notices something off. (An example that comes to my mind is when someone in the family decides to gift all the girls in the Jia household some flower decorations, and Daiyu remarks how she was the last one to be given one and thus was left with leftovers.)
I don't know about you, but that sounds closer to what Hong Lu seems to be like, at least to me.
Three, remember how I mentioned Baoyu's Father? Yeah. Let's talk about that.
Hong Lu mentions his Father in one of his main menu Chatter lines, expressing excitement over being able to introduce his new friends to him.
Why is this relevant? Becuase Baoyu is terrified of his Father, it's a pretty major point that his Father is the Main person in his family that considers Baoyu a disappointment and a disgrace. And it's not something that develops later on in the novel, I'm on Chapter 10 out of 120 and it has been a prevalent thing for a few chapters now.
There are two ways I can see this being resolved. Either Hong Lu is majorly lying to himself (which honestly might not be out of the question), or Hong Lu isn't based entirely on Baoyu, but is inspired by a mix of Baoyu and Daiyu.
That was. An extremely wordy and rambly way of saying that I think Hong Lu is based on two characters instead of one. Uh. Oops.

ITS EVERYTHING. me and nini be talking to each other like we have known each other since the 2nd grade 😭😭.

@wonwoonlight @wqnwoos @idubiluv @i43shuji @odxrilove @hannyoontify @haowrld @luvhyun3 @blue-jisungs are a few extra moots which I have either just now started to talk to or was terrified to DM. either way, you guys made this year 10× amazing.
for my followers in general, thank you all so much for sticking with me. I started this account in the middle of last year but "rebranded" this year. which was kinda a mistake considering how 2023 wasn't my year (minus the concerts I've been too). but you guys made me so much more confident in writing and taught me so much in ways that did not had to be verbally spoken. I love you guys so much. everyday I come on here, I always think about how you guys are and how lucky I am to have such amazing people on here. as the days go by, I always try to remind myself that me writing is a hobby and not a competition and I have learned that very quickly with the help of you and all of my wonderful moots. once again, I want to thank all of you for racing with me to the end of this year despite all of the long-lasting breaks I have took for my mental health, thank you for simping with me, thank you for loving my way of art and expression because you do not understand... a simple reblog, a single viewer that scans our stories means so much to a writer. especially on an app where writing stories isn't the main feature. I have made accomplishments this year with my stories and my writing style but my biggest accomplishments yet was having such a wonderful audience, a loving group of moots and the sweet words you guys put in the tags. I am not going to make this very long for I have things to do going forward to the new year but... I cannot express how grateful I am for you. every single one of you.
cheers to the new year loves!!
2024, please be better for me and every other person that had to endure so many hardships this year. if not, make at least one moment where they can remember that bad things do not last forever <3

i was infodumping in someone's dms and i just came to a realization.
from where the balance timeline is taking place, the inversion just happened. blake learns of his place in all of this - learns he's a tool, comes to the conclusion that there's nothing that he can do because humanity and demonkind is so fractured.
from where we are in the present, nothing has happened in regards to the sovereigns. there’s none of them running around… except hush.
he says he's gonna "make a deal with the devil." what if... he made hush? or he... IS hush? this might be the most crackhead theory i've ever made on this blog. please walk with me.
brachium referred to blake as a force ("you act as a force without any humanity") - what has hush been calling himself this whole time? a FORCE. hush keeps saying that he's on this plane for a very specific reason which is to free the sovereigns. the articulates call him an abomination, hush refers to himself as something "more."
there is virtually nothing that blake's little mortal self could exchange for his lover's freedom. except for his body. for HIS life.
think of it as what el'aetum and min'ara did - when they used starlight as a conduit. what if blake's body was used was a conduit? what if the sovereigns made their puppet using blake? either blake made hush or blake IS hush - whatever it is, there's gotta be a connection there. i may be completely wrong about this and if i am, so be it, but dude - there's a connection. there has to be!

if you’re interested pls read! i think everyone will find this post interesting! this is going to be one long post about time in stranger things and it’s relation to back to the future. also somewhat theorizing that will is going to get stuck in the upside down and how that could be time traveling?? or how the characters will time travel?? also mentions of pocketgate, birthdaygate, and the blue meets yellow in the west theory. anyways this will probably be a bit messy, but i have a lot of thoughts and i just want to write all of them down and i really feel like i’m onto something lmao
ok so i have been thinking about what the significance of time in stranger things is which led me to remember when robin was explaining to steve about why back to the future was called back to the future. she explained it as “he has to go back to the future because he’s in the past. so, the future is actually the present, which is his time”. i immediately thought back to when i have said in a couple of other posts how i think in s5 there will be time travel because the upside down is stuck on the day will went missing. so while trying to see what scene came after robin’s explanation, i found this article detailing all the parallels stranger things has to back in the future in s3. and that led me to two other articles. the last image is a screenshot from the article about the original pitch for stranger things which mentioned time travel.
Tumblr media
so really the rest of this post is now going to focus more on the back to the future stuff. first i want to talk about this part of the vulture article i linked in the beginning of this post. i have seen all the back to the future movies, but a really long time ago, so i don’t remember much, but when i saw “save the clock tower” all i could think about were the clocks in stranger things.
Tumblr media
i googled more info on the clock tower and idk i’m about to become a real crackhead theorist, but it makes sense to me considering all the parallels this show has. anyways let’s look at what is said about the clock tower in back to the future.
Tumblr media
i started freaking out while reading this because s4 has a big emphasis on time and CLOCKS. vecna’s mind lair thing has clocks everywhere. when a character is about to get vecna’d they hear a clock and see a grandfather clock. also, the clock being struck by lightning?? there’s lightning in vecna’s mind lair thing AND in the final scene we see lightning in the sky!! so in back to the future, the clock got struck by lightning which caused it to be stuck for years at 10:04 (and this is probably just making something out of nothing but the clock being stuck on the 4th minute and vecna wanted to open up 4 gates and you hear 4 chimes symbolizing that). now guess what else is stuck in time? the upside down. the upside down is stuck on the day will went missing which is november 6, 1983. will was stuck in the upside down for a week. what is a week away from nov 6? november 13. the ‘save the clock tower’ flyer mentions the date november 13 on it. also, in back to the future, doc gets the idea for the delorean (the thing that helps him and marty time travel) when he was hanging up a clock and hit his head on november 5, 1955. this is also the day marty ends up traveling back in time to (marty’s present time takes place in 1985 and s3 of ST took place in 1985 lol).
NOW what gets crazy is that on november 6, 1955, doc learns that because marty interacted with his parents which messed up his parents initial meeting, he is now telling marty that he needs to get his parents back together otherwise marty will be erased from existence. WILL GOES MISSING ON NOV 6 AND BECAUSE OF BIRTHDAYGATE WHAT DO WE THINK IS HAPPENING TO WILL?? THAT HE’S BEING ERASED/FORGOTTEN FROM THE TIMELINE!!! and throughout back to the future, the more time that is being prolonged of getting marty’s parents back together, the more him and his siblings disappearing from the timeline is becoming reality (he knows this because they start disappearing from a photo he has of his family). there’s also this post that was made that mentions how the memories that were mentioned in the shed in s2 could be altered or are being forgotten and if that’s the case then it makes sense those memories would be forgotten if it’s a sign something is happening to will. anyways because of the lightning strike that strikes the clock, it powered the delorean on november 12, 1955 and was able to send marty back to the future. marty was stuck in the past for a week. will was stuck in the upside down for a week. vecna begins his attacks on hawkins on march 21 and hawkins is split in half by the upside down on march 28 making that a week (a week that includes the day of will’s bday). that’s why there’s a 2 day time jump because the timeline of s4 needed to last a week. i’m just thinking about “the week is long” part of the blue meets yellow in the west code… and speaking of blue and yellow, the ‘save the clock tower’ flyers are in blue and yellow…
i’ll say one last thing about the flyer, so i can shift more into pocketgate and how mike has a letter written to will. so marty keeps the flyer because his girlfriend wrote her grandma’s number on it and “i love you” and he puts it in his pocket. because he kept the flyer it ends up helping him get back to the future because of the info it contains about the lightning strike. what do we think mike has in his pocket? a letter to will that says “love, mike”. something he couldn’t write to el. there’s been an emphasis in stranger things with letters and yes i know it’s the 80’s so that was one of the main forms of communication, but they’re also a part of the plot, so they mean something significant! like joyce receiving the letter from hopper which makes her go to russia to save him. hopper’s letter to el about not wanting things to change (i will write more on this). max writing letters to her friends for them to read in case something happens to her. max writing a letter to billy that expresses how she has been feeling since he passed. el being upset that mike can’t write “love,mike” in his letters. season 4 opening up with el’s letter to mike that mentions time travel. will and mike have an argument that mike didn’t write enough to will and that “el has a book of letters from him”. now back to the future also has letters play an important role in the storyline. for example, here’s info on the letter that marty gave to doc that he stuck in doc’s pocket in 1955 that saved doc’s life.
Tumblr media
now in back to the future 3, doc in 1885 wrote a letter to marty to be delivered to him on november 12, 1955 which marty ends up showing the doc in 1955. the letter ends up helping them.
Tumblr media
in the letter up above, doc writes how much marty means to him. obviously the relationship between doc and marty is NOT romantic at all, but if stranger things is paralleling back to the future the way it is, then isn’t it possible mike has a letter to will explaining his feelings? and considering in back to the future, the letters were helpful to the characters, could it be that mike’s letter will help will and save hawkins? could mike’s love for will be the motivation to help will survive the upside down if he gets stuck there again? i’m thinking it’s possible will gets stuck in the upside down, which would basically be him time traveling in a sense. i’m wondering if maybe will will be in possession of mike’s letter before he gets stuck in the upside down and will decides to read the letter while he’s stuck there (maybe paralleling back to the future when marty has the flyer that has “i love you” written on it from his girlfriend). OR do mike and will get stuck in the upside down together and mike decides to give his letter to will then (maybe somewhat paralleling back to the future 3 when 1955 marty gives 1955 doc the letter 1885 doc wrote 1955 marty in order to help them get 1985 doc back to 1985 from 1885). there’s also this tweet from the stranger things writers account. so could it mean that this is parts of the letter mike wrote to will that he will give to him on november 6, 1983 because they’re stuck in the upside down together???
now moving on. i said i’d talk more about hopper’s letter. here’s what the vulture article wrote about hopper’s letter:
Tumblr media
the article is comparing the letter marty wrote doc to save his life to the letter hopper wrote to el. so couldn’t the other letters featured in the movies somehow foretell mike having a letter in his pocket? they paralleled a stranger things letter to a back to the future letter once they could do it again. here’s more of what the article wrote on hopper’s letter:
Tumblr media
we know what hopper meant by telling el “to maybe stop that change. to turn back the clock. to make things go back to how they were.”. we also theorize because scenes of mike looking back at will’s house and hugging his mom while this part of the letter is being read, we think it relates to mike wanting things to go back to the way they were with will. we even think it could potentially be the moment mike realizes he loves will and doesn’t know what to do with that which leads to his weird behavior in s4. BUT couldn’t this part of hopper’s letter also have a 3rd meaning? s4 does deal with clocks. hopper mentions “to turn back the clock”. when nancy see’s henry’s backstory, there is a scene of henry changing time on the clock. is it possible that time travel has to occur where they are able “to turn back the clock” in order to save hawkins? and if will is stuck in the upside down maybe having to do that to save will? or maybe because he’s stuck there and it’s stuck on the day he went missing then that could be turning back the clock as well…
now for my final analysis of the vulture article and how it relates to back to the future, this part is going to do more with byler. let’s look at this part of the article:
Tumblr media
first things first, it mentions back to the future wants to preserve the status quo and how that relates to stranger things. in s4, eddie mentions how forced conformity is killing the kids. finn said in an interview that mike is trying to stay as normal as possible. looking at these things, it makes me think about mike and how he’s trying appear as heterosexual which therefore would be “normal” and fitting the status quo. this also fits into hopper’s letter and the scenes of mike while the letter is being read. mike is losing will and if that moment when will moved is when he realizes he’s in love, then he knew that things would change and if he’s trying to fit in, then he’s going to do what he can to make sure nothing changes even though as we see that backfires throughout s4 because his relationship with el is on the rocks and things with will have been rocky as well. and we know will is being forced to conform as well as he mentioned feeling like a mistake and we can only assume he is afraid to come out as gay due to homophobia.
so back to the future is about marty going back in time to 1955 and having to fix the timeline where his parents fall in love and get married because when he went back to 1955 he messed up the initial meeting of his parents. if he fails to get them together, then he will cease to exist. marty is struggling at first to get his parents together because his mom has developed on crush on marty (weird i know but to me this shows how the right people need to be in a relationship in order for things to get resolved). if we think of how that could parallel to byler, then we know that mike’s love confession did not help el or save hawkins. we know el can defeat vecna and we know that what makes her powerful is love. she was able to banish vecna to the upside down when she remembered her mom saying “i love you”, but with mike it didn’t work— why? because it’s a lie. he doesn’t love her romantically like he says. hawkins isn’t in desolation because of mike, but i think if we want to make a parallel then we can say that mike being with el isn’t what’s supposed to happen because they aren’t right for each other. this also fits in to how mike and will’s love would save hawkins. just like marty’s parents falling in love preserved the timeline and allowed marty to continue to exist. now if we think that will is starting to cease to exist from the timeline due to birthdaygate and coincidentally marty learns he will cease to exist if his parents don’t get together on november 6— the same day will went missing— then could it be that mike’s love saves will?
like there’s just something about the upside down being stuck on the day will went missing… something about el’s letter mentioning time travel and time feeling like it speeds up or slows down based on emotion… something about the duffers saying they’re going back to s1 dynamics… something about vecna’s entire thing revolving around time… something about vecna making his victims visit their past traumatic memories… something about one of the ways to block vecna from getting to your mind is by thinking about past happy memories… something about vecna saying thinking about a past memory that makes him angry or sad makes him more powerful… something about hearing the sound of a clock being slowed down when a character is about to get vecna’d… something about “the week is long. the silver cat feeds when blue meets yellow in the west. a trip to china sounds nice, if you tread lightly”… something about spring break being a week long… something about will being in the upside down for a week… something about vecna saying “seconds. minutes. hours. days. weeks. months. years. decades. each life a faded lesser copy of the one before.”… something about will’s birthday being forgotten… something about will being sidelined from the plot or shall i say fading from it… something about the back to the future parallels such as marty starting to be erased from the timeline starting on nov 6 the same day will went missing…
anyways i know this was long AF, but there was so much to say! i could be grasping at straws, but this was fun to write and analyze! i love the back to the future movies, so seeing how all of this parallels and could potentially continue to parallel is cool. all in all i don’t think it’s far-fetched to think will is going to get stuck in the upside down, some form of time travel will occur considering that was a part of the original stranger things pitch, and that mike and will’s love for each other will save hawkins. if you made it this far, thank you for reading all of this <3
back to the future poster parallels x
back to the future november 21st parallel theory x

Hello so I was thinking could you do plantonic Male reader little brother x Vance hopper and just how they met and other stuff you did in the big brother one. Btw I love your account!!
Platonic little brother reader x Vance hopper HCs
Tumblr media
“Why the HELL did you kick him in the nuts? Do you not have any sense!?”
“You didn’t hear what he said!”
“WHAT did he say!?”
“What are you gonna do? Kick me in the nuts?”
“… okay now that is just FUCKING asking for it!”
“I know right!?”
That was your first encounter with Vance, you had kicked one of those kids who hang around him in the nuts
You were very much younger than the boy who you kicked and Vance so you had some respect in his book
The kid was bullying you for having long hair that went past your shoulders and the bear plush you still carried 
So you fucked him up with pure crackhead determination 
Vance clapped and got you a soda, it was an amazing fight
You hung around Vance seeing how he was a super tough guy and you had a bodyguard technically 
After some time of getting to know him, you found yourself going out of your way to say hi and give him stuff like cool rocks or quarters you took off some guy you kicked in the shins 
You watch Vance play pinball almost every day
Vance gave you money to buy you two a drink
You invite Vance for hangouts but they're mostly just listening to music in a little cafe 
Vances calls you by nicknames like “Kid, squirt, shortie, and shortstack”
Vance helps you with homework since it’s basic and he can help out
Vance picks you up by the scruff and just carries you off to god knows where 
You have scary dog privileges
You’re a little gremlin
You steal shit from people and you saved up to bring Vance to a skating rink and Vance after brought you to a big arcade to pay you back
Sleepovers are a must for friendship
Your parents were a bit wary but still welcomed Vance with open arms
“Mi casa es tú casa”
“The fuck does that mean kid?”
“My house is your house”
Vance has a key to your house 
When Vance sleepsover you share your bed but you two don’t fit so you just starfish style on Vance who is only slightly annoyed and lets it slide
You play with Vance’s hair a lot and braid it and do whatever the hell you want with it
You grew out your hair to match Vance and he styles it and stuff
You get a turn on the pinball machine
Once you won his high score he bought you a soda
You cheer for him in his fights 
In grab n go some guy bumped into harshly and messed up your score and made you fall to the floor
Vance was mad and punched the guy but then he pulled out a knife but then Vance got a hold of it and wrote the score you got as a reminder
You thought he went to far and dragged him out before the cops came because you notice the cashier reach for the phone
“We need to leave!” pulling him by his arm and pulling him off the guy, he took the knife
“Why the HELL do we need to leave you need to finish shortstack, besides this guy needs to learn his lesson-”
“Do you WANT to get arrested!?” he then heard faint police sirens and qucikly stood up
“Okay fine let’s get the fuck out of here kid” he picked you up by the scruff and ran out of the store before dipping into someones backyard (he also stole some snacks as he got you and him out of there)
“Do you even know whose backyard we’re in?” Vance shrugged his shoulders as he put you down to your feet
“Nope not a clue now let’s keep moving or do you want to get caught” he started going over the fence you guys were in and moved to the next backyard
“Wait for me!” you followed behind him as he continued
The police sirens eventually faded out and Vance to you to some woods for the time being
“Welcome to my favorite spot” it was a short abandoned viaduct that had loud rushing water bellow, Vance sat down as his legs dangled off the edge
“What scared you’ll fall?” Vance said it in a very amused tone that irritated you
“No, I was just wondering how much it would take to push you off into the water. That’s all” you said that with a smug look as you sat next to him
“Well then I bet I could push you into the water right here in now without a sweat” 
“You probably could.” you pouted at the thought
“But I won’t I’m not that much of a jerk to push you into a river that your short legs couldn’t even reach the bottom of” his smile said it all and you were mad
“You’re an ass Vance.”
“Ha! That’s precious coming from you”
You two sat at the bridge for hours snaking on the snacks Vance brought (stole) and laughing until you cried 
It was a nice and you noticed it was night so he dropped you off at home and you two parted ways 
The next day you begged him to take you to “The spot” again but that was a sacred place for him, it was only for special occasions like running from the police
“Why!?”
“Becuase I don’t want people finding out where I hide, so you don’t go there unless I go there got it?”
“Fiiiiiine”
“Good, now let’s get some snacks”
“We’re not going to grab n go.”
“WHY!?”
“You know exactly why!”
“UGH fine.”
“Good, let’s go to the one near the movies”

Hello again dear! Today I'm on the mission of properly speed running all Ghost lore and such (I'm that new--I know bits and pieces but not everything so here I go!) but I also had a question. Maybe I'll learn some things as I do my dive; but what's your inspiration/how do you personally characterize the Nameless Ghouls? I definitely want to get into the fandom more and contribute with my own fics, being a writer myself. :) I've been drabbling a bit as Dew/Sodo but I feel I'm still lacking. No, I don't want to just copy you or anyone else's characterizations of them, but I feel I need a nudge or some tips for general shared ideas; if that makes sense? Feel free to answer or not, I'll still appreciate your time reading my plight! You're also free to DM me if you'd prefer too! Oh and thank you for your previous kindness because it gave me the gumption to get up and message you for my little embarrassing lack of knowledge. Aha;;
Hello, lovely!
There's no need to be embarrassed. Everyone starts somewhere!
For me, I look at each of the ghouls on stage and try to write about their personalities from that. I remember watching a whole bunch of videos of them live and that really helped me.
I also have @da-rulah to back and forth with me about each of the characters and what we feel their personalities are like.
My general rule, though (feel free to take this and run with it):
Mountain, Rain, Cumulus and Cirrus are calm and collected but for different reasons. Rain is shy, Mountain and Cirrus are mature and wise, Cumulus is just here for the vibes.
Sodo is a minor crackhead - chaotic calm, if you will. He's your stereotypical introvert in that if you push the right buttons he's gonna go crazy on your ass, but most of the time man's just mellow.
Phantom and Swiss are little. Shits. Phantom is a mini-me to Swiss and definitely learned his chaos from Swiss for sure. Crackheads galore, pranksters, assholes for the shits and giggles etc.
Obviously everyone is different, as is each interpretation of the ghouls so it might help you to ask around a bit more and see which ones vibe for you!
Happy writing!

Almost everyone, I think, interacted with some form of media which wasn't age appropriate. For example, when I was about 8 years old, I was given a copy of The Princess Diaries. Not only was it targeted at girls about 6 years older than me, it was also incredibly American, so I was even more confused. I read it over and over again, and understood almost nothing. I decided to return to Genovia recently to see if I could decipher it any better now.
- I did not know how tall 5ft9 is. That girl is loooooooong!
- when one is described as a "freshman", how long does it take for one to ripen?
- "flunking" is an odd word, and from context I could tell that it wasn't anything good
- when I eventually learnt the FOIL method, I realised it was really easy. I also had to shut up and not mention that I'd heard of it through The Princess Diaries. My fellow students would not have understood
- in two paragraphs, there are the words "Bigelows", "alpha hydroxy", "Drakka Noir", "synapses" and "senior". I'm pretty sure I thought Josh Ritcher might be a pensioner
- not strictly relevant but Lilly is the worst
- I was also surprised to learn that British schools have Gifted and Talented programmes. Unsurprisingly, I was not selected
- Michael has a webzine called "Crackhead". I think this is noteworthy
- there is a joke about Michael making a bomb and blowing up his school. This clearly places the narrative as something which is set (and written) before We Need To Talk About Kevin was released
- Lilly and her parents have a "don't ask, don't tell" policy with Michael. I only just realised how fucking sad this is
- Michael has a dog named Pavlov. Solid joke
- ok I actually think Michael might be a bit creepy because he does start sexually harassing Mia. She is clueless and thinks he wants her to "take his mom's empty Tab cans back to Gristedes for the deposit money".
- I was confused by the whole "mom"/"mum"/"mam" thing. All are better than "mem" or "mim", I guess
- there are some homework notes at the back which I still don't understand. Perhaps that's the point
- Lilly and Mia make a list of hot guys. Including: Prince Harry (odd, I always thought Prince William was the late-90s hearthrob. Shoutout to those Princess Di genes); Timothy Dalton (just checked and I got him confused with Timothy Spall, who played Wormtail in Harry Potter); Leonardo DiCaprio in Titanic (surprised Titanic wasn't mentioned earlier! Also, apparently he kept farting on set); a guy on a billboard (they think he should have his own TV show) and Joshua Bell (modern me had to do some googling because I wanted to know if that had anything to do with "Drake and Josh").
- Mia's parents are separated and she seems fine with it. She is upset about her mum dating her teacher and is hyperfixated on the fact that he teaches maths and she is struggling in his class. Shortly after I read this book my own parents separated, and I was FAR more confused and unhappy and destructive, so it was interesting/weird to see her perspective
- Mr Gianini actually seems really sweet. I guess that's the point
- Mia thinks about going to the Cultural Diversity Dance. Dunno what cultural diversity has to do with dancing, unless everyone starts doing Irish jigs? Also, what is the deal with homecoming? Who is coming home?!
That's just the first three days of diary entries. V v weird but kinda fun

How Many Times Must We Burn
A crackhouse raid goes wrong. There's an explosion. There's a scream. How many tries will it take for Flashback to get her whole team out safely?
Cw: Fire, burns, graphic depictions of injury (burns) and suffocation. Major character injury, possible major character death. Mentions of drug use, drugs, violence.
Ao3
-----------
"Are we all clear on the plan?"
Of course they were all clear in the plan. It was the same plan as always. Fade goes in, gives the warning, when that doesn't work, they all go in guns ablazing until the crackheads run away or are beaten into submission. Then they burn the drugs and steal the money. Rinse and repeat. Honestly the whole ordeal was starting to get old, Sara would kill for a bit of action now and again.
So of course, everything went down without a hitch. They went in, busted a couple heads, and took the money. It wasn't until they were looking for the drugs themselves that it all went bad.
The explosion rocked the building. The ground shook as fiery tendrils crawled through he doorway Fade and Masquerade had just gone through, and they were spreading through the rest of the room fast, eating through the old alcohol stained flooring and walls like dry tinder in a bonfire. The heat was unbearable. Then there was a scream.
Sara was almost too stunned to react, but she had learned long ago that every second was precious with a power like hers.
"Flashback!"
The room shifted back to the world of three seconds ago. The fire was gone, or not yet there, despite the lingering warmth like a mild burn against her skin.
"Fade, Mask, fall back! Everyone out!"
They all knew to follow her orders. They had trained it. They had made sure that when Flasback said something, there were no arguments because it was almost, if not always, a matter of life and death, and no one wanted to be the idiot who died because they didn't listen to the girl who had prevented their deaths thousands of times.
So they all listened and ran. Well, actually, the Blood Syndicate never ran. They retreated tactfully. Even if that did look like a mad, desperate dash for escape.
Even so, despite being trained to follow her orders, sometimes things went wrong. Sometimes they couldn't hear her yell, or she was just too late in general, or something else got in the way.
The explosion rocked the building and again, the air was filled with an ear-peircing, blood curdling, scream.
"Flashback!"
This time she went after her brother and Mask. They hadn't heard her last time, so she'd have to get to them directly. A tricky thing with her timetable.
The two were several rooms down a narrow hall, sorting through bins or capsules and pills. Sara had to forcibly stop herself from shoving a nice handful in her pocket.
"Guys, we need to get out! like, now!"
Fade's eyes widened and he immediately reached over to grab Mask's arm, yanking him harshly toward the door. It didn't much matter though, three seconds is a horribly short amount of time when you really need them to be long.
Sara didn't even register the sound of the explosion or the vibrations of the ground. She was much more preoccupied with the feeling of her flesh melting of her bones. The heat had come much more sudden and much, much stronger, surrounded by the barrels and barrels of poison. The shock tore her voice from her throat and the fire replaced it with acrid smoke.
Sara couldn't breath, and worse, she couldn't speak. The there was the scream. It was worse the second time. She didn't even know who's voice it was, wasn't that sad?
"F-flash- flashback!"
The fire was gone, so was the smoke. Still, Sara was finding it hard to breathe. Fade and Mask were still going through the barrels.
"Out! Now, Both of you!"
Her voice was raspy from the smoke, and picking herself off the floor was the most excruciating thing she'd done in a while, but they had to get out of there. She couldn't go through that burning again. Wasn't it funny that not even twenty minutes ago she had been begging for some proper action? Oh how fate can be a cruel mistress.
They got as far as the front room this time. The others didn't bother asking what they were running from, they all just fell on line as the explosion rocked the building for the fourth time. The wall of heat slammed onto Sara's back as they made there exit. It wasn't flashy or cool like they preferred, but they were all alive and that was good enough.
They had made it a block away from the smoldering remains of what was a crackhouse but was now more of a smoking pile of ash, before Sara finally collapsed. The heat still lingered under her skin and if she closed her eyes she could still smell the burning of her flesh. Heat the screaming. Taste the smoke.
Breathing hadn't come easy for a while now. It might have something to do with her desired method of disposing of the drugs they liberated, but it wasn't like she had ever had great lungs to begin with. Right now it felt like she was trying to breath thumbtacks. Every breath in sent waves of pain through her chest, and even breath out msd either worse. God, everything hurt. Even her head was pounding, Wise was shouting about something and that was definitely not helping. If it weren't for the circumstance, she would've considered having a smoke to calm herself, but that didn't seem like such a marvel idea at the moment.
Somehow she managed to pick herself up again, likely due to DMZ's assistance, then suddenly they were back at the warehouse. Odd, she hardly remembered the walk. Wise was still yelling and her head was feeling really cloudy. Maybe a nap would do. Shit, she really wanted that smoke right now.

Another twst writter NICE!
It's rare for me to see matchups in this fandom so I am very much interested huehuehue
I hope it's okay that I go by anon I use they/them pronouns
My personality type is an Into and my zodiac sign is a Libra
at the start I'm the most quiet of the bunch but when I get comfortable enough I end up being the biggest crackhead my friends online are either always caught offgaurd by my shenanigans or used to it at this point daily
even though I seem rather talkative annoyingly very much, flirting with random people in servers,I actually prefer to be left by myself to do my own things I go with the flow and tend to slack off at times but when it comes to things I'm interested in I make sure to give it my all and when I'm in the zone I don't like to be told off what to do, just because I'm a passive person doesn't mean I'll let people step on me I have my own limits and boundaries and won't hesitate to stand up for myself or others.
People usually underestimate me because of how dumb I act at times but when a serious situation calls it's basically a personality switch for me that I have to be in charge if nobody is up for the position, I also make sure to be very attentive to people I'm close with even down to the little details and if one were to ask me about my honest opinion I won't hesitate to be blunt though I make sure to tone it down a little depending on who I'm talking since I'm aware what I say can be rather rude.
Interests:Drawing and playing videogames also making absurd theories!!!
hope this isn't too long have a good day (⁠。⁠•̀⁠ᴗ⁠-⁠)⁠✧
Event Closed
(a fellow Libra 😁)
I match you with Vil Schoenheit.
At first he is impressed by your calm collected aura, but he sticks around because there's something alluring about your crackhead, randomly flirty, but also private, nature. He's always on his toes with you, and it's new and exciting. Also, we all know that everyone loves libras! It's that winning personality. ;)
Draw him something? He'll be so flattered, and so happy. He'll give you a soft kiss on your cheek, tell you how beautiful you are, then post it on his magicam with an elegant caption about true love, and pure beauty, and the magnificence of art. Rook sobs about it every time, because he can't cope with the "sheer weight of Rois du Poison's love."
When Vil thinks back onto the moment he realized he was in love, it was a moment when you were blunt with Ace about being a dumbass. He can't remember which time it was, exactly, but he can clearly recall you standing before him, a serious expression on your face, as you told him if he didn't get his act together, he'd end up failing out of NRC. As a fellow blunt person, Vil was in awe. Don't be afraid to be blunt with him. He can take it. And he wants to hear what your opinions of him are.
Vil can learn a lot from your go with the flow/slacker side. At first he's not too sure about it, but his stress levels start to significantly decrease when he follows your way of living. And Rook comments that his forehead looks less lined in recent photographs. Huh. Who'd have thought?
The absurd theories…who knew Vil Schoenheit would be so intrigued by a conspiracy? His head spins whenever you just go off on a rant, but it's so hot how into your theories you are…(it's the Aries in him. He loves when you're passionate)
"These games are a waste of time," Vil grouched.
"And yet, you've been watching me play for three hours, perfectly entertained," you hummed.
He didn't say anything, but with how long you'd known Vil, you knew his lower lip was probably protruding prettily, and his arms were probably crossed, in a beautiful version of a pout. 
"Is it possible that, just maybe, you less are upset about the video game, and more that I haven't been paying attention to you?"
Vil scoffed a little too loudly, affirming your question more clearly than a yes ever could. 
"Vil," you hummed, before patting your lap.
He humphed, and rolled his eyes, before laying down and resting his head in your lap.
You gently pet his hair with one hand, while continuing to try and game with the other. It wasn't long before Vil was breathing slightly heavier, and it was clear that he had fallen asleep.
"Aw, my sleepy queen," you whispered, removing your hand from Vil's hair. 
At least, that's what you tried to do. A half asleep Vil whined, and pushed your hand back into his hair, before settling back into sleep.
"My needy, sleepy, queen," you muttered with a roll of your eyes, resuming petting his hair.

MEMES & LOVE.
Type: Headcanons
Futakuchi Kenji x Crackhead!GN!Reader (Singular)
Summary: Of course maybe someday Dateko's captain would end up dating someone. But nobody even knew he'd start dating a total memelord. Not even Futakuchi himself.
No Warnings! Pure Crack And Comedy.
Tumblr media
Futakuchi Keiji:
I'm a simp for this man so just beware okay.
Well to start off literally you did not give a single quack about introductions and just went "hey so i think you're hot and all wanna go on a date?"
HELP HE IS SO CONFUSED SHSUSGHSHS– like shawty yes he fine as hell but context pls 🤡
Look, this man is definitely down and all since he thinks you're interesting but finds it weird how you can literally joke about anything at anytime and by anything...
I MEAN EVERYTHING, like..? 💀
He just made a comment about volleyball and you're out here making those sports puns. Like you guys were just hanging at the gym then you just went–
"Hey, Futakuchi-kun?" "What..?" "If you wanted a hard serve we should've went to an ice cream shop instead." 👁👄👁 mm yes hard serve ice cream–
So yeah, he hates you /j
Lol just joking he honestly thinks some of your puns are very bad, but most of them are really funny. He was genuinely drawn to you because of your humor.
And when the other guys heard you were dating him they went like WHAT?? SAY SIKE RN??
Nobody knows how it ever happened, don't ask 😭 you bein' innocent and cute over here like "you didn't know? 🤨"
Fr though Futakuchi over here just wants to die now lolz
As a boyfriend, he would often tease you randomly and you'd use jokes as a literal excuse to make him think that you're immune to his sexiness.
Which you aren't, and he later learns that. Cue him just being at your side all the time and making you blush– 😍
Just rail me already dammit i'm already whipped
Aone honestly thinks that you were his sibling at first because damn you both play fight a lot. Nobody would ever think their captain could be like that /hj
During the time you aren't chaotic, both of you just sit around and cuddle each other the entire day.
Futakuchi thinks you've finally calmed down...until a minute later you sneakily take your phone out and send him a really cursed meme of shrek x dora 😰
He will stare you dead in the eyes and you'd be praying for forgiveness so good luck with that.
But the times you actually ARE calm and just want some good 'ol lovey dovey time with your boyfie be ready to pass out from bloodloss because of nose bleeding.
BECAUSE DAMN HE SO FINE
You come home from hanging out with friends and see him in the bedroom with his shirt off and skggsihsohs– and just sends this hot smirk your way which almost kills you 🥵
...This was supposed to be crack but i got carried away i'm sorry i am in love with this man.
Jokes aside, Date Tech seriously deserves more love.
